Fingers crossed. Writing on-tour and road-testing seems to be an environment that Jarvis has learned to thrive-on.
Maybe taking a break from the band and reconvening "cold" a year or so later puts too much pressure on new material.
Whereas we've already heard that the first spark for More came from Jarvis introducing Hymn To The North at a soundcheck/rehearsal ahead of the Sheff '23 show.

The best way to avoid writers' block is to never break at an end, but at a middle.
Couldn't find a way to fast forward but it starts at 23 mins and runs for approx 20 minutes. Nice producing from the radio engineer. As the host discusses lyrics off More with Jarvis, they play the snippets in question from the tracks.
In the past, they have written and performed songs on tour that would eventually appear on the next album. They were performing songs from "Separations" in 1987 before "Freaks" was even released then a couple of songs from "His 'n' Hers" in 1992. "Common People" made its live debut around a year before release along with "Underwear". "Help the Aged" was performed in 1996 and I think that "Cocaine Socialism" was written around this time too.
The only possible exception is "We Love Life" where the songs they performed seem to have been written in advance.

Love the interview, I stripped and cut the audio to only Jarv part : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Pua_eKKGLgF4eqvbsJEMmTuDaYg2p-Y0/view?usp=drive_link

I love that. "Oh and what if a new song happens to slip out"!

Thanks! Would you mind doing similar for the radio session and interview on the other thread? If you could boost Jarvis' vox on the live songs, even better!

I read about Man Comes Around being listed on their set list for Red Rocks Amphitheater, I got excited as they dont tend to do cover versions in there current guise, but I did some research and Johnny Cash had strong ties to the venue, his performance leading to the venue being used by a lot of country music acts. So it seems like they meant a JC (Cash, not Christ or ****er) cover as a tribute to this fact but changed their mind.
Long time lurker, but didnt want others getting excited about a new song.

Jarvis did say in that Uncut piece that he's obsessed with people with the same initials as him so covering a JC song in that venue must have been tempting. Not tempting enough though it seems.
Sounds plausible. But at least it does seem they are working-on or open to the idea of working on new songs per Jarvis' comments on that US radio interview.

No, the World Cafe one - there's a separate thread. Ian has ripped it for the FCL bootleg site but if it could be cut into interview and session parts, that'd be cool. Sorry, don't have the ability, myself!
Curtailed setlist last night - Sorted, Disco 2000, Spike Island, FEELING, Farmers' Market, Hardcore, Sunrise, First Time, Mis-Shapes, GTHL, Babies, Common People.
Brit Award nominations in February or whenever it is nowadays? I know that I'm not comparing like for like but The Cure were nominated last year with their first album in many years so I would say it's possible. Is Jarvis still banned from the ceremony?
